Anybody use REDEX system cleaner? ('green' vs. 'red' label REDEX)

[420SE]

Daft question coming up - you've been warned

I bought some REDEX. Now, when buying, I had a choice of 2. The red label is designe for petrol cars and the green label for cars with injectors.....I bought the green? Is that right? Does a 420SE have injectors?

Yes Sir.

 

[420SE]

So I did buy the right one then, is that correct?

The red one is for petrol engines (injected or carb) while the green stuff is for diesels.

Shouldnt do any harm though, AFAIK most are generic.

I noticed that in Halfords there were 3 types - green, red and blue bottle, the blue designed for diesel, which thankfully mine isnt

The PETROL one is for petrol engines and the DIESEL one is for diesel engines.

Takes a bit of working out you know

Are you sure

I used redex as a petrol additidive on my last car and swore by it but when I bought my CLK 320 the owners manual said not to use it.......so I did not........but I miss it...........can I now use it?
